Does anyone know how to get a drop down list to auto fill is the user types in the entry instead of just searching on the first letter. I have a list box with part numbers (@5000). I am using Dreamweaver MX, ASP, with a SQL Server Database. Any Suggestions?

Hi, unfortunately the drop down menu/list that is used on web forms does not work like this, it only works on the first key stroke.

I had a simular problem and handled it buy giving the user a pop up window that then has a search on it to locate what they want, then this value is copied to the original form when the user closes the popup.
